Tickets for dogs


Dogs travel at a reduced fare on the ZVV network. If you frequently travel with your dog across Switzerland, buying a dog pass is a cost-effective option.

Small dogs up to 30 centimetres tall can travel for free if carried in a basket or bag. Larger dogs require a reduced 2nd class ticket.*.

Dog Pass

If you frequently travel with a dog, consider buying a dog pass for CHF 350 per year. Loaded onto the SwissPass, the pass allows the holder to take a dog anywhere in Switzerland for one year. Note that the pass is issued to a person, not the dog.

Notes

* 1st / 2nd classDogs always require a discounted ticket or pass for 2nd class. If the accompanying person has a 1st-class ticket, the dog is allowed to travel in 1st class as well.
Loss / ticket inspection

The dog pass can be replaced for a fee if lost.

If you forget the dog pass at home and get inspected, you can present it at the counter within 10 days and pay only CHF 5 instead of the full inspection fee.
